From CSA to Table, with Help

Dear Bay Weekly:

A while back I read an article written by Amy Russell regarding Community Supported Agriculture. She had mentioned something about a specific website that offered a searchable ingredient list for common CSA foods. I would like to know the address.

Salute a Veteran

Dear Bay Weekly:

Every year on November 11, a grateful nation honors and recognizes more than 23.4 million living veterans.

While our foremost thoughts are with those in distant war zones, on Veterans’ Day Americans pay their respects to all who answered the nation’s call.

South African Election Analysis

Dear Bay Weekly:

I congratulate you on the Election Educator [Oct. 28]. The present, mid-term election is my second experience in your country after the Barack Obama victory two years ago.

Now You See It, Now You Don’t

Dear Bay Weekly:

How time flies by. Nothing shows the passage of time like physical changes.

I read that the last house on Holland Island has fallen into the Bay. This was the same island we used as the stopping-off location for the Chesapeake Bay Foundation kayak trips with Don Baugh and Tom Horton. It was my first trip into the Bay, and I also wrote about my experiences Up Close and Personal for my first Bay Weekly story [Aug. 16, 2001].

Two Great Boat Shows in a Great Town

Dear Bay Weekly:

Steve Carr wrote a great article on the United States Yacht Shows [Where We Live: Oct. 7]. To answer his question, technically, we are the oldest and largest in-water new sailboat show in the world. We are also the oldest in-water powerboat show.

No Third Nuke Is Not All Bad
